How a stamped finish goes on
Brickform's technical sheet splits its color hardener into two broadcasts, 75–80% of it first and the last 20–25% second; most jobs take 60 pounds for every 120 square feet. The mats can generally go down once a test press makes a clean print 3/16 to 1/4 inch deep, and a chisel, roller or texture skin often comes out afterward to clear displaced cement paste.
Curing compound waits until the leftover release has been washed off, at least one day after stamping and sometimes two or three. The final sealer comes several weeks later, after a light cleaning, as most manufacturers recommend.
Slope and joints on Leroy ground
The map unit at the town's Census centre point is Branyon clay on 0 to 1 percent slopes, close to flat. A textured or stamped surface drains more slowly than a smooth one because water collects in the pattern, so the slab's fall is planned at layout. On a clay the survey rates for high shrink-swell, joints matter too, and control joints in stamped work need a cut no shallower than one-fourth of the slab's thickness.
Plain slabs are on Leroy patios, and an old slab that is still sound may suit resurfacing instead. The Leroy service list has the rest.

Questions on sealing stamped work
Why aren't penetrating sealers used on stamped concrete?
Because they would leave the release's antique coloring unprotected, the American Society of Concrete Contractors' sealer guide explains.
How many coats of sealer go on stamped concrete?
Typically two thin coats. Acrylic sealers are the type most commonly used on outdoor stamped concrete.
Why did a new stamped patio crack?
Some cracks in stamped concrete are shrinkage cracks from pushing the stamps in after the surface had become too hard, one published guide explains. Others have causes any slab can face, since tree roots pushing in, freeze-thaw cycles and other disturbances may crack a poured slab.
